(5 mmole) of the ester of Example 11, 1.12 gm. (10 mmole) of 85% aqueous potassium hydroxide, 5.5 ml. of water, 27.5 ml. of ethanol and 2.75 ml. of dioxane under argon at room temperature for 21/2 hours. Evaporate to a small volume and dilute with 18 ml. of water. Filter and acidify with acetic acid to pH 4.5. Separate the precipitate by filtration, wash with water and dry in vacuo over calcium chloride. Recrystallize from acetonitrile to obtain the title product, (m.p. 267°-269° C.).
